Townhouse living meets penthouse life at the junction of these iconic addresses. Cornering Clendon Road just two blocks from Toorak Village, this spectacular Christopher Doyle design is a unique find with all the space of a two-storey townhouse and all the peace, privacy and prestige living of a penthouse position.
Set over two levels on the first floor of an artful dual home development, this adaptable up to 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom home offers grand formal lounge-dining with a cocktail-balcony, a sun-bathed north-facing casual zone with breakfast-terrace, and a 360° degree-view top-floor bedroom or living domain – designed as a self-contained "virtual penthouse" with kitchenette, bathroom and 2 reticulated skygarden-terraces.
Cleverly accommodating with a grand master domain (with mirrored dressing-room and dual-vanity ensuite), second suite and third bedroom fitted as library-home-office, the home features luxurious fully-tiled bathrooms (including 2 private ensuites) and a Gaggenau kitchen with pull-out and walk-in pantries and Zip tepid/boil tap. One of just two with an absolute minimum of shared space, the property has private lift access to an internal lobby from three-car basement garaging, a secure storeroom ideal for cellaring.and balconies in every direction from almost every room.
A showcase of this leading architect's classical design, the home is finely detailed with natural and composite stone benchtops, parquetry floors and Villeroy and Boch porcelain-ware. Finely crafted wrought-iron balustrading wraps the stairs, French curtaining enhances tall windows, and deep-corniced coved ceilings rise to 3m. Appointed to the highest standard with zoned ducted climate-control plus individual units, a stone-surround gas-fireplace, ducted vacuum, alarm system and video intercom. Even the storage is excellent - with robe, linen, coat and even shoe storage.
A walk to Toorak Village, a 5 minute drive to Hawksburn's cafe society, and 5 minutes direct to the M1, the home is surrounded by renowned private schools (Loreto, Geelong Grammar and St. Catherines are closest) with the CBD tram at the end of the street. Uniquely configured, uncompromisingly completed and so beautifully positioned, this is the penthouse, and townhouse, opportunity of a lifetime.
